Patented, Award-winning, Habit-forming Design Changing the Habit of Hand Hygiene! Orbel is the personal hand sanitizer purpose-built for healthcare to increase hand hygiene compliance and decrease hospital acquired infections. The innovative, wearable design of the Orbel ® enables it to become an extension of the employee’s hand, capable of delivering a 99.9% kill rate within 15 seconds of application. Plus, no maintenance or upkeep costs! The use of body-worn antiseptics increases hand hygiene compliance dramatically. When able to be activated with a single hand, as with the Orbel ® , they have been shown to decrease HAI rates up to 40% beyond the impact from using wall mounted units. 1 1.
